Spotsylvania County, VA Child Custody & Visitation Attorneys

Child Custody can be and often is the tensest aspect of a divorce case. Issues can arise before, during and even after the divorce case has been finalized. While lost assets can be regained or replaced over time, there is no compensation for lost time with children.

In today’s environment, it is no longer the presumption that the mother shall have primary custody of the children. It is also no longer the case that visitation for the noncustodial parent shall take place only on alternating weekends. Today, custody and visitation arrangements can vary widely with the preference being that the parents determine the schedule.

We recognize that where, and with whom, the child lives as determined by the custody and visitation agreement, can have a significant impact on the future relationship between the parent and child. Details regarding the various aspects of a visitation agreement, as well as the potential pitfalls, are all issues our attorneys handle on a routine basis.

At Meyer & Bowden, our experienced Spotsylvania attorneys will put our 40 years of combined experience to work for you to ensure that your rights are protected.
